I appreciate the level of effort in documenting all this. Whenever I think about stuff or experiences the first question is always: 'how much in USD?' and my next question is 'how do I make it cheaper?'

95$ is too less for visas. Probably he holds a very accepted passport. Have to count in the huge visa costs and its processes for the less privileged ones like me.

There are indexes[0] which categorise passports in what can be loosely defined as "powerful."
Some of these things may include not having to apply for a visa before entering a country (i.e visa-on-arrival or visa-free entry), cheaper visa costs or even free visas if they're required.
The New Zealand passport[1] is a good example (although not necessarily the best) of a "powerful" passport in this regard. Compare this to a Syrian passport[2] (extreme example) or a Colombian passport[3] (moderate example).
